To help educate Australian parents, we invite you to visit the RCH National Child Health Poll website, where you can learn more about what parents do and don't know about fever.

Mental health is a crucial aspect of a child's well-being, and we understand the challenges children face today. According to the latest RCH National Child Health Poll, parents report that 50% of children are experiencing problems with anxiety. To help parents recognize anxiety in children and know when and where to seek help, we offer valuable resources and guidance.
In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have curated a comprehensive collection of resources on our website. These resources include information about the physical effects of COVID-19 on children, mental health care, and advice on how to support your child during these challenging times.

"Had the triage dr say she czn get up on a bed so shes fine. To then vietual ED tell us to go straight back as RCH should have done ultra sound and bloods. Ended up goinf back and the next triage Dr forcefully looked down my 9 year.old childs top and her breasts while asking if she was going through pubity! This is basically SA and should have serious consequences. Not okay. Parents were in the room and answered the question asked. We were there for suspected appendicitis! She has not gone through enough pubity for ovarian torsion to be considered."
"My son was admitted into Dolphin Ward via ED (ED who were super efficient and quick) We were there for 4 days. During those 4 days we had the same bedside nurse and she was absolutely amazing!! Her name is Jordi. She made us feel comfortable and show compassion towards my son every time. Thank you RCH!!"
"I cannot express enough gratitude to the Royal Children's Hospital for the exceptional care they provided to my sons. During our nearly 3-week stay, the nurses and doctors went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and well-being, and their warmth and kindness were truly appreciated. Though there were a few delays with our procedure, the understanding and compassion shown by the hospital staff were remarkable. We fully comprehend that there are more critical cases that demand immediate attention, and the hospital's dedication to prioritizing those cases reaffirmed our trust in their expertise and commitment to patient care. Overall, our experience at the Royal Children's Hospital was incredibly positive, and we are very happy with the care our sons received. The staff's welcoming nature and the level of attention they provided to our family made a significant difference during a challenging time. Thank you to the entire team at the Royal Children's Hospital for their outstanding efforts and commitment to providing excellent medical care. We would highly recommend this hospital to anyone in need of specialized pediatric care."
"Our son badly split his head open on Sunday night. We were seen to immediately, triage, and were waiting to see a doctor, who then told us quite quickly that it was a case that needed to be escalated to plastics. The surgeon came in and explained the situation, and we got to go home and return the next day. Some may feel this is disappointing because it wasn’t fixed on the night, however, given the severity of other cases, we were very happy to go home, sleep in our bed, and then return the following day. Our duration at the hospital on both visits were less than four hours in and out. Our son’s scar, albeit 4.5cm long, is seamless and will heal beautifully. Thank you to all the emergency staff!"
"I’m so astounded by these “self-entitled” reviews. Here you have a world-class hospital with the best doctors and amazing staff providing leading health care FOR FREE. Where in the world do you get that? Try the USA? You’ll need to get a second mortgage. This is one of the best hospitals in the world that took such great care of my daughter when she was there. Thank you."
